Charles Barkley Has Tough Take on Kyler Murray’s Social Media Fiasco: “You Can’t Overreact When You’re a Great Player”

Star quarterback Kyler Murray has been recently making headlines for his state of unease with the Arizona Cardinals. Following his Pro Bowl appearance, the 24-year-old scrubbed all the social media posts with the Cardinals on his Instagram profile. This started the rumors of him being in a tense situation with the franchise.

Just after the Super Bowl, Murray backed his disharmony with the franchise on a tweet after ESPN’s Chris Mortensen released a report, stating that the athlete was being framed as a “scapegoat” by the organization following his playoff loss against the Rams. However, a couple of days later a report by Arizona Sports mentioned how the Cardinals signal-caller “definitely regrets” his social media drama.

The young player has been scaling up new heights with the Cardinals every season. He has shown exceptional sporting spirit in the gridiron and produced enormous results in the 2021 season. Though he stumbled on his way to the finish line but he led the Cardinals to a 7-0 start.

Charles Barkley on Kyler Murray

NBA legend and Arizona resident Charles Barkley had a bold suggestion for the quarterback. “The first question Kyler Murray has to ask himself: ‘Is the criticism fair?'” Barkley said in The Rich Eisen Show. “You can’t overreact when you’re a great player. As great players, we’re not all perfect. The first thing you have to ask is: ‘Is what they’re saying about me true?’ He has to look at himself in the mirror.”

It was certainly an honest opinion from the former MVP and four-time All-Star with the Phoenix Suns. The young quarterback still has a long way to go in the league and judging by his current form he has been a true threat. However, the NBA legend reiterated on him to keep self criticize and be scale as a true athlete.
